I would like to know what is the longest period of time that you know of active JW(s) that has been hiding their sins before confessing to the elders?

that’s a very open-ended question. Depend what you call sins, going to a Forum like this is grounds for Disfellowshipping, and I am still a JW who go's to most meetings.
Also, as far as morals is concerned, I'm sure there are many who do immoral things without confessing, even common things like Masturbating, as far as sex is concerned, people do what they think they can get away with.
I personal heard of a pioneer sister who was having sex with 2 brothers in the congo for 4 years before she was found out.
I have heard of times when a public talk has being given regarding ‘concealing sins’ and then out of fear and guilt some go running to the elders confessing pass or present sins.
So, really the answer to your question would have be "many years"

was the pioneer sister disfellowshipped? or did she get away with it with reproof?
